EP. 41- There's a Turtle in There. Signs of the Swarm (Absolvere) Review. Well, we all knew this moment had to come eventually. Aurie has finally been subjected to the hellscape that is the genre of deathcore, front to back. Though they may have survived, can we say that they remain unchanged in this world? Buckle up for the stupidest arguments you've ever heard among grown adults and learn a little something about liquid smoke while you're at it!

EP. 41- There's a Turtle in There. Signs of the Swarm (Absolvere) Review

Hiç ara vermemişçesine ansızın yanıbaşınızdayız! 

@billieeilish'in "Hit Me Hard and Soft" albümü ile popüler kültür, brat summer, Z kuşağı ve başka bir sürü konuyu masaya yatırdık ancak yine işin içinden çıkamadık.

Bu programdan elle tutulur bir fayda almanız biraz zor olduğu için Cansu'nun her Z kuşağı demesiyle shot atma oyunu oynamak en mantıklısı gibi görünüyor.  2024-25 sezonu boyunca her pazar akşamı 21:00'de @radyomodyan'da buluşalım <3

In this episode, Darren, Scott C, Alain, and Scott G close out our series of four special episodes where we select two feature albums and discuss how one may have been influenced by the other in some form. The twist this time is new kids Stone Temple Pilots might have influenced Def Leppard, comparing the albums Purple and Slang. Is there a connection?

Album Review: How Stone Temple Pilots Influenced Def Leppard

Bu hafta Mk.gee‘nin "Two Star & The Dream Police" albümünü çok beğenmediğimi düşünerek değerlendirecektim ki programı hazırlarken beğendim. Fred Again‘in "Ten Days" isimli albümünü de beğendiğim için programa koymak istememiştim. Sonra baktım ki bunlar beraber şarkı falan yapıyorlarmış. Neyse işte, programda bu yazdığım şeylerin daha kötü anlatımlı ve uzun versiyonu var. Cansu yok, Belgrad’a festivalde çalmaya gitti.

Welcome metalheads to another episode of the great metal debate podcast. It's Xander with another back to back album review. Today, I'm probably going to be giggling a lot during this because we're talking about a parody band. Yes that's right, good old fashion spoof comedy. This band is called Dimmu Bongir which is making fun of the popular symphonic black metal band Dimmu Borgir. This is their brand new album titled Dark Medieval Hash which is making fun of Satyricon's debut album Dark Medieval Times. The black and white album cover even looks similar.

Before I go any further, I have to point out that this band actually is from Norway. That is the one thing about this band that isn't a joke. Also, this band is basically the modern black metal equivalent of the band Cannabis Corpse. Those of you who don't know, Cannabis Corpse is a parody death metal band that makes their own original music but just takes small jabs at other classic old school death metal bands by changing around song and album titles to fit marijuana themes.

The same is happening here, only its black metal and the music isn't exactly original. I just discovered this band the other day thanks to the YouTube algorithm bringing me to their music video for "A Witch is Stoned".

"Bongens kammer del 1" is a two and a half minute instrumental intro track which is clearly a parody title for Dimmu Borgir's instrumental "Sorgens kammer del 1" even if I personally am more familiar with the song Sorgens kammer del 2". Ah, ok I'm looking at the track list. The final track on this album is "Bongens kammer del 2". Makes sense.

I'm not really sure what "Du som røyker brunt" is supposed to be a spoof of but next we have the album title track followed by "Deathkush" which is a jab at Mayhem's "Deathcrush".

"I troldskogen fyrer weed" is a parody of "Troldskog Faren Vild" by Ulver. I had to YouTube the first part of the song title to see what popped up because I'm honestly unfamiliar with Ulver.

However I also have no idea what "Pipens Åpenbaring" and "Tåkeleggelse og røketrang" ... Look, I'm not fuckin Norwiegen here, I have no idea how to read or pronounce this shit. I don't know what they are supposed to be spoofs of. But the idea is still funny.

I assume the word "Pipens" has to do with smoking because it sounds like the word pipe.

Honestly, if I didn't know this was meant to be a comedy band, I would've never known. The music and vocals both sound great albeit nothing groundbreaking.

I'm going to keep this review short since I know this band isn't meant to be taken seriously. As I already mentioned, it isn't bad but it's completely unoriginal. I'll give it a 6 out of 10.
Their music is available on all streaming platforms but their physical media is completely sold out on their bandcamp page. I'm not sure if they have plans to do reprints of their "Hvis pipen tar oss" debut that has a colorized parody album cover of "For All Tid". But I don't currently see hard copies of Dark Medieval Hash or shirts available for sale.

If you're really interested in showing your support for these Norwegian "Weird Al" Yankovics, feel free to contact them on Facebook and ask them about their merch.

Welcome back to The Great Metal Debate podcast for another amazing metal album review.  Today we’re looking at the new one by UK symphonic power metal crew Fellowship with their second full-length album “The Skies Above Eternity” released by Scarlet Records.

Fellowship is a band that appeared on the scene just a few years ago and immediately received a lot of positive perception by power metal fans, so much so that it makes me question if I missed something. I have heard their 2022 debut “The Sabrelight Chronicles” maybe once, and for whatever reason didn’t find it worth revisiting. But Fellowship has definitely blown up and made a name for themselves in the genre, including appearing on the bills of Epic Fest in Denmark and Mad With Power Fest in the US.

I’ll go ahead and somewhat telegraph my conclusions out of the gate: based on this album at least, I think folks who are sky-high about Fellowship should tamp down the enthusiasm, but certainly any haters need to reevaluate their take because there’s a lot to appreciate as well.

First, singer Matthew Corry’s voice is both powerful and pleasant, and he impresses with his ability to manage against the symphonic mix with the strength of his diaphragm. Other than one misplaced falsetto on track one, he hits all the notes and conveys genuine emotion in his tone. That said, one of the problems I have with Fellowship’s approach overall is that there isn’t enough contrast provided between his saccharine-sweet singing and the rest of the music. I really noticed this in the few places where the instrumentation dropping out entirely as on “World End Slowly” and there was at least the contrast with silence. If you are going to have a metal band with vocals that are so slick and sugary – basically a singing style that would be at home in adult contemporary rock – you really, really need something with a touch more rawness for contrast.

Musically – and I’ve hinted at this earlier – the guitars don't crunch as much as I would like throughout.  It’s not so much that I need the distortion up front in the mix but that, again, the contrast with the vocals would be helpful. That said, the guitarwork is effective and I appreciated the subtle infusion of neoclassical playing in places.  Bass guitar is present throughout the album and often noticeable, as are keys. There is a lot of keyboard and vocal layering happening, and Fellowship makes judicious use of effects like bells and various other symphonic instrument sounds. The orchestration generally is solid, although not so impressive as to merit the inclusion of the final track referenced previously. Callum Tuffin's drumming on the album is outstanding and a key element of the album’s overall vitality.

As far as the overall aesthetic, the mood created by Fellowship’s is consistently uplifting, victorious, and frankly, happy. It evokes a fantasy atmosphere – almost Tolkien-esque, which I guess shouldn’t be a surprise given the band’s logo font – with gorgeous sound and adventurous, melodic structures. I wouldn’t say that what Fellowship does here is innovative overall, but there is a freshness to the execution and some creative takes. While there are no overt references to Christianity, if one didn’t know better they would be forgiven for thinking this was a white metal album along the lines of Lightmare or Theocracy.

 “The Skies Above Eternity” is too much sunshine and rainbows for my taste. If I have one suggestion for Fellowship going forward it would be to mix in just a couple of darker, moodier tracks on the next album. Not simply for their own sake, but because the comparison would make the band’s lighter songs shine even brighter!

Fellowship’s “The Skies Above Eternity” is released by Scarlet Records on November 22nd. You can purchase the new album via ScarlettRecords.com, Bandcamp, and other places you find quality metal music.
